Our Story the journey of Wf1

This whole thing started as a simple thought:

Women should share their stories from all over the world.

Women For One is a global community that supports women in sharing their stories, claiming their voices, and making life happen on their own terms. We advocate for women who are ready to step up, speak out, and shine—while expressing themselves with vulnerable transparency and finding inspiration in our global sisterhood.

We are passionate about community, connection, collaboration, and creating the lives we want as women. We believe that when we become clear about who we are, boldly claim our passion and purpose, and encourage each other to shine, we create supportive communities where all our voices matter.

In addition to offering a digital platform for women to share their written stories, we’ve created powerful resources that foster women’s leadership and self-expression. Our interactive courses give women tangible tools to increase their leadership skills, embrace their stories, accept all of who they are, expand their communication skills, and take action to make life happen. We also offer our signature community-centered event, the Truthteller Tour, as well as in-person workshops and corporate training across the country, free ebooks, and inspiring daily newsletters.

Founded in 2011 by teacher, women’s advocate, and bestselling author Kelly McNelis, Women For One reaches more than 630,000 women from over 60 countries across the world who follow Women For One onFacebook,Twitter,Instagram, andGoogle+, in addition to the 35,000 unique visitors per month that our website currently receives.

Women For One also hosts a popular podcast, Your Messy Brilliance®Show, in which Kelly shares the insights of bold leaders who aren’t afraid to make a little mess. To date, Kelly has interviewed dozens of powerful changemakers, including the late Dr. Maya Angelou, Arianna Huffington, Glennon Doyle, Marianne Williamson, don Miguel Ruiz, Byron Katie, and Roshi Joan Halifax, just to name a few.

YOUR STORY the journey of you

Let’s be real—you can read about who we are, but this is really about you.

Your life. Your challenges. Your resiliency. Your victory.

Since 2011, you’ve been sharing your stories: of struggles, relationships, heartbreak, recovery, motherhood, body image, and the power of being a woman.

You are defining what it means to be female…to be mothers, daughters, survivors, creators, global citizens who are shaping our communities and societies in ways both big and small.

All of you who make up our tribe are the reason we’ve been around for the past eight years, doing what we do. We are inspired by your strength, and we strive to meet your deep yearning for connection, inspiration, and a virtual campfire where you can take a load off, kick up your feet, and be real with your sisters.

In short, we’re so glad you’re here.

At Women For One, you’ll find all the resources you need to make life happen on your terms: stories and blogs, interviews about our collective messiness and brilliance as women, courses to help you get your ass in gear and fall in love with yourself, live events, and resources meant for the woman you are and the woman you want to become.

Most of all, we are here to help you find the gold in your personal stories. Stories of every flavor and magnitude. From the funny, to the dark and devastating, to the uplifting and everyday: All stories are welcome, wanted, and needed.

By celebrating and mourning in community, by sharing our stories and creating new ones, we are changing the world.

“I LOVE Women For One. This beautiful community website is a powerful forum for women to share from their depths. When we consciously share our stories with each other, when we can be vulnerable in a safe place, then huge healing happens. Women For One offers a safe haven that is transforming the world, one woman at a time. I am honored to be part of this amazing movement and encourage all women to dive into the wisdom that comes from the diverse voices that make up the whole of Women For One. Thanks, Kelly, for your heart and vision in bringing women’s voices back into the world.”

HeatherAsh Amara, Author of Warrior Goddess Training

“Being a Truthteller for Wf1 helped me feel more globally connected to women all over the globe. Truthtelling is not just another story that gets passed on by, but rather, it allows us to be meaningfully connected from one heart to another. Through the sharing of our stories, we unravel the most of our authenticity—inspiring others to do the same.”

Susan Chen, Wf1 Truthteller
